@@ConvictionsRock The Lord gave you guys the ability to write some powerful music imo. That may sound like it undersells what the Lord has done, but you guys are an apparatus the Lord is using in the process of my deliverance. Hallelujah.
Okay. This feels like Deja Vu. So…a few days ago when listening to this album I had this random thought of…”man how SICK would it be if P.O.D did a collaboration with Convictions!?” And then sure enough Mike hits up Sonny (with of course the bombardment of POD puns) in this music video!?!? And my mind is literally blown. 🤯 I’ve loved Convictions since their “I will Become” album. God bless them. 🙏🏼
Funny video 😃 For real, though, this is really an artful way to represent what the lyrics are about. The pride and self-repression of "manliness" can eat you up in sin and pain, and a lot of times it starts with competition with and/or emulating what we saw in our fathers. Even when we have great dads it happens. I've been hurting from this myself, even dealing with it heavy earlier today. Humility seems to be a hard thing for me to learn. Not giving up, though. Thanks for dropping the song, guys! Jesus bless you!
What... just happened? 10/10 video, now to go back and actually listen to the song 😂 Edit: In all seriousness, this song lyrically hits hard right now. Such emotional lyrics. Probably one of my favorites from you guys. Can't wait for the rest of the album next month!
Loving all these new jams you're putting out! Also, I once had someone tell me that screaming literally takes zero talent and I just laughed lol. We gotta train our voices to sing properly and that definitely takes work. Training to scream is a whole other beast.
Lyrics: Am I still living like the ghost of somebody else? A prisoner in my skin I'm so haunted by the image I see of myself Conforming under the pressure (Conforming under the pressure) I've been holding on for far too long I'm facing my demons yet I'm hating myself It's so hard to admit when we need help Detached from reality, we lie to ourselves It's so hard to admit when we need help So compromised and vulnerable to a disease that tears at the seams Invisible to the eye, God, I'm forever falling behind Why am I still living like the ghost of somebody else? A prisoner in my skin I'm so haunted by the image I see of myself Conforming under the pressure We are helpless alone, staying isolated We are helpless alone This pride will become the death of me My masculinity over my mental health Suppressed emotions step into my personal hell Consumed by the tide, I'm grasping for a lifeline We all struggle to keep our pride in line The warning signs (The warning signs) Aren't always crystal clear It's not easy putting ourselves together down here Reach my hands towards the surface Searching for hope when I don't deserve it Why am I still living like the ghost of somebody else? A prisoner in my skin I'm so haunted by the image I see of myself Conforming under the pressure We are helpless alone, staying isolated We are helpless alone This pride will become the death of me Defeated in the wake, Lord, I'm swallowed whole I accept my mistakes, I surrender control Beneath the waves, God, I see your face Wash over me and renew my faith I will find solace, fulfill your promise, I am free
I haven't laughed so hard in years. If this doesn't show you what it's like to be part of the metal scene, Idk what does lol. If The Grizzlies were still a thing, hands down you would win music video of the year.
Hahaha this is excellent, I loved it😂 Not only for the video but also for the great song🔥👏🏻👏🏻 (pineapple on pizza is disrespectful) Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷✨
Awesome song and album but I can't help but feeling like the leads and guitars in general are really buried in this mix. The riffing does not stick out in the mix at all.
Now that I've seen it, I can officially say that the music video has absolutely no correlation whatsoever to the music. Great music, though! I get a taste of Wolves At the Gate.
When I saw the thumbnail, my first thought was that Bilmuri was dropping a new song. Yardcore is the way.
#same dude
Same dudes
Amen
Also me
Yardcore.... Lol
bilmuri effect has taken place on convictions with that thumbnail
I'm a simple man. Convictions releases a song, and it becomes my most listened to track for a week.
❤❤❤😂

All them POD references too 😂

This is bringing back the Phinehas early music videos vibes!
My horses are many vibes
the Sonny cameo back and forth had me rollin rollin rollin rollin
I love that you guys aren’t afraid to be goofy, but still worship the Lord. 😂 God bless!
Funny video 😃

I love how as the jobs get harder, the execs get fancier. This video deserves all the Dundees.

I like this style of metalcore. so nostalgic. keep it up! :)
Great video love the visuals an this song amazing an love the band an you guys
If Mike's dad isn't the lead at the album release imma be sad.
Just when I think your music and videos can't get any better!
The John Fleischman cameo is gold 😂
YESSSSS

Reminds me of my Dad.. He always used to get involved into me and my friends JamSeshes. RIP Dad! ❤
Great fucking song!
@Convictions Can't wait to see you boys live in Pomona!

I had to do the same thing xD I was so bamboozled by the video I had to pull it up on Spotify later to listen to it properly lol
They're lyrics always hit hard but it's in a good way.
This is great! Favourite single yet! Love the Tallah hat!
Absolutely love it!! Great song and video!
Too funny!! 🤣 Amazing song of, course and a clever, unique idea for a music video!!

Lyrics:
Am I still living like the ghost of somebody else?
A prisoner in my skin
I'm so haunted by the image I see of myself
Conforming under the pressure
(Conforming under the pressure)
I've been holding on for far too long
I'm facing my demons yet I'm hating myself
It's so hard to admit when we need help
Detached from reality, we lie to ourselves
It's so hard to admit when we need help
So compromised and vulnerable to a disease that tears at the seams
Invisible to the eye, God, I'm forever falling behind
Why am I still living like the ghost of somebody else?
A prisoner in my skin
I'm so haunted by the image I see of myself
Conforming under the pressure
We are helpless alone, staying isolated
We are helpless alone
This pride will become the death of me
My masculinity over my mental health
Suppressed emotions step into my personal hell
Consumed by the tide, I'm grasping for a lifeline
We all struggle to keep our pride in line
The warning signs (The warning signs)
Aren't always crystal clear
It's not easy putting ourselves together down here
Reach my hands towards the surface
Searching for hope when I don't deserve it
Why am I still living like the ghost of somebody else?
A prisoner in my skin
I'm so haunted by the image I see of myself
Conforming under the pressure
We are helpless alone, staying isolated
We are helpless alone
This pride will become the death of me
Defeated in the wake, Lord, I'm swallowed whole
I accept my mistakes, I surrender control
Beneath the waves, God, I see your face
Wash over me and renew my faith
I will find solace, fulfill your promise, I am free
MY HUSBAND AND I ARE CRACKING UUUUPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I REALLY thought there was about to be an Atilla type reaction to the pineapple pizza…🤣
Love the song, but bro! That music video tho! I almost died laughing 😂
The breathing takes in the behind the scenes at the end were on point🤣🤣
I loooove this
Dad has been waiting for this convo lol
Did this video 😂 for such a serious song too
Gotta love this band you can tell they love what they do!
Love the video and the direction!
Oh man, this video is so awesome!
Bilmuri vibe in the video, so good!
Makes me think of Malevolence by Plea!! So good 😂
It was so good and good Christian metal music
I love this song so much! The vocals and instrumental part are so catchy and technical. The video is very funny and soulful ☺
Hahahaha oh my goodness you guys are absolute legends! This had me cracking up at work this morning😂😂😂

Awesome song and album but I can't help but feeling like the leads and guitars in general are really buried in this mix. The riffing does not stick out in the mix at all.
I am curious as to how the thumbnail correlates with the song whatsoever. I guess we'll see.
Now that I've seen it, I can officially say that the music video has absolutely no correlation whatsoever to the music. Great music, though! I get a taste of Wolves At the Gate.
